TechWire: Don’t do it, Enda and Eamon
: Adrian Weckler with a plea for the incoming govt regarding the attempt to rush through ’3 Strikes’ by the outgoing one: ‘Such a law will have absolutely no effect on the practice of illegal filesharing. None. Zero. It hasn’t worked in France. It hasn’t worked in Britain. And it certainly won’t work in Ireland. On the other hand, it may well send a signal to huge, jobs-creating digital IT companies that Ireland is a place that tries to legislate away personal digital freedoms.’
